Details
DeepSeek, together with Peking University and Tsinghua University, has released the Thinking with Visual Primitives paper and an open-source repository.
The core idea is to elevate spatial tokens such as coordinate points and bounding boxes to the minimal unit of reasoning.
- These tokens are inserted directly into the reasoning process, letting the model think while pointing to specific locations in the image.
- It is a multimodal reasoning approach that mixes spatial tokens directly into the chain-of-thought.
